Ok, let me try again: we shouldn't use both modeler and 'custom' mbean at the same time. For 'intersting' cases we can use a custom standard mbean or a dyanmic mbean or even a custom model mbean. I don't understand MBeanFactory very well - my understanding is that you can declare a 'class' and have the constructor called ( that's why the constructor is defined in JMX ), so the factory is redundant. But it may be a cleaner way to construct elements. I don't know how it can deal with 'custom' modules ( like user-defined realms or connectors ). For users - given the performance and scalability implications it certainly need a custom mbean, if we go with one mbean per user model.
